i've tried watching breaking bad three times and just can't get into it. just because someone doesn't watch or listen to something doesn't mean they are boring or unwilling to try new things or push out of their comfort zone.

I've got another one: people who make assumptions about others based on subjective, biased and often loaded observations without really knowing what that person has tried or done.

Hit a nerve? Hardly I've never seen ncis, and breaking bad is one of my favourite programmes. I have a problem with the notion that people lack taste for not watching what I watch. Or 'branching out'. People have better priorities than that.

Oh, I mentioned this on another forum recently but when people say "I love music, I listen to everything!".

That ""everything" turns out to mean they own a Club Hits 2K13 album, two Britney Spears singles, and they once heard the Foo Fighters in their mate's car

This. And the inevitable 'it can't be that good because no ones ever heard of it'. FUCK YOU.

Oh god that grinds my gears so much, I've never heard of them so they must be shit, grrrrrrrrrr.

You know once, many years ago just as they were starting out U2 had never been heard of before either you dumb shit, there's hundreds of thousands of amazing bands out there that never hit the big time, doesn't mean they're shit.

As stupid as saying 'I've never heard of them so they must be shit' (luckily never heard that said myself), again some people are happy with what they like. They don't have the time, patience or resources to explore new music. They have stuff they like, and they listen to it, that puts them ahead of some people already.

Its more a celebration of your sexuality than a civil rights march these days? That being the case I can sort of see his point, we don't have a straight pride march (do we?) for instance.

like roy from the IT Crowd says, i'm perfectly happy with my sexuality, i just don't want to be slapped in the face with thier sexuality.
